The budget approved in October allocated US$710 million (about R$4 billion) to research at Australian universities in 2021, while the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), the country\u2019s national research funding agency, is expected to receive an extra US$327 million (R$1.84 billion) over the next four years. The news was welcomed by universities, which are facing financial difficulties due to the pandemic. The money &#8220;will help universities deal with the immediate crisis,&#8221; Duncan Ivison, deputy vice chancellor at the University of Sydney (<em>photograph<\/em>) told the journal <em>Nature<\/em>. It does not, however, solve the long-term lack of research funding, he said. In the next five years, Australian universities could lose up to US$5.4 billion (R$30.4 billion) in revenue that would have been invested in research because of the drop in fee-paying students. It is estimated that some 6,100 professors (11% of the country\u2019s research workforce) may lose their jobs as a result.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Universities in Australia are to receive extra funding to boost the country&#8217;s economic recovery after the pandemic","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":383785,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1651],"tags":[225,226,234],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-383498","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-notes","tag-economy","tag-education","tag-finance","keywords-coronavirus-en","keywords-covid-19-en","keywords-sars-cov-2-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383498","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=383498"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383498\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":384116,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383498\/revisions\/384116"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/383785"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=383498"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=383498"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=383498"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=383498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
